Welcome to the January edition of the PANGEA e-Newsletter.
The five key trends in the freight forwarding sector in 2016
Discover the factors that will determine developments in the industry in the next year.
2016 shows signs of a moderately optimistic economic outlook. The WTO expects international trade to grow 3.9% in 2016, which is slightly higher than the 2.8% reported for 2015, but still below the average of 5% we’ve witnessed over the past two decades. Although recovery seems to be stabilised in the United States and Europe (to a lesser extent) there is still some concern about the behaviour of some emerging markets, especially in China, even though Asia will continue leading global growth. These five aspects will shape market developments in the freight forwarding sector in 2016.
